About Meller Notes
You’re probably carrying more than you admit.
Trying to grow your career while still making time for your family.
Trying to stay sharp in a world of AI, constant noise, and endless to-do lists.
Trying to lead, decide, and keep your own energy alive.
The question I hear again and again is simple but hard: How do I keep growing without burning out or losing myself in the process?
That’s why I created Meller Notes.
I help you grow your career, build your personal brand, and create simple self-management systems to manage your work and life — the way real people do it.
I’m William. I’m Brazilian, originally from the south (yes, a gaucho), now living in Sweden. And I’ve been writing online for over 16 years at the intersection of leadership, tech, project management, career, and personal growth.
This space is my open notebook, made for readers like you. Simple notes that help you navigate career and life when things feel messy. Sometimes personal. Sometimes practical. Often both.

I’m glad you’re here. Let’s build something great, together.
Okay, but… Why Premium Is Different
The free version of Meller Notes will always give you value.
The premium version is more intimate. It is not about giving you extra content just for the sake of it. It is about opening the part of my work that costs me the most. The hours I spend reading and rereading, connecting ideas, writing, thinking… It just… Premium! :)
Those are the pieces that feel too expensive to leave open to the internet.
Think of the premium side as sitting at the table with me. You see what I am working on before most people. You get the reflections that do not come out in casual posts, the thoughts that I save for the people who choose to be closer.
And… There’s always more being planned…
Meller Notes isn’t just a newsletter. It’s a community of readers who care about growing their careers without losing themselves, who want to think sharper, and who believe small, consistent lessons can shape a better life.
I read every reply, and I value every conversation. If you want a close connection, you will find it here.
Let’s build something great, together.
